1527140-3

Ring connectors are electrical connectors with a U-shaped or O-shape that create a connecting loop within a circuit. 1527140-3 is one such type of terminal ring connector. This type of ring connector is primarily used in connection with cable pairs and contain gapped ferrule braid.

Application Field

1527140-3 terminal ring connectors are designed to meet the most demanding electrical system requirements, and can be found in diverse applications, such as industrial automation, robotics, appliances, power supplies, automotive, medical equipment, broadcast and communications systems, and much more. Generally speaking, ring connectors are highly suitable for high voltage, high current, or high power applications.

Moreover, ring connectors are superior solutions when space is limited, as the design significantly compacts the connection area, enabling engineers to work within confined spaces without having to compromise the performance of and connection integrity.

Working Principle

The 1527140-3 terminal ring connector works in a simple yet effective manner. When connecting a cable bundle to the 1527140-3, the braid is first stripped to the desired length. Then the ring terminal is placed around the braid, ensuring that the strands evenly enter the ring\'s gapped ferrule.

Once the correct fit has been achieved, the ring is crimped to the braid using specialized crimping tools. Generally, a double crimp is recommended for additional strength and reliability, although this depends upon the application\'s requirements.

A heat-shrink boot is then fitted over the connection in order to secure and seal the connection from the environment. This greatly increases the connection\'s life span, and minimizes the risk of moisture-related corrosion, or damage to the connection from UV radiation.

Finally, the 1527140-3 ring connector is available in various materials, including phosphor bronze and brass, as well as contact finish options such as gold-plated, tin-plated, or nickel-plated. Thus, users can select their preference based upon their design specifications and budget.

In conclusion, the versatility, reliability, and durability of the 1527140-3 terminal ring connector make it an ideal choice for numerous connection requirements, from industrial applications to automotive and medical equipment. Users can rest assured that their connection will be protected from the environment and will remain reliable throughout its lifetime.
